Agricultural Survey [ag/oth]
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has developed a monitoring system in 26 food crisis countries to better understand the impacts of various shocks on agricultural livelihoods, food security and local value chains. The Monitoring System consists of primary data collected from households on a periodic basis (more or less every four months, depending on seasonality).
FAO conducted the fourth round of the Data in Emergencies household survey (DIEM-Monitoring) in Chad between 16 December 2022 and 10 January 2023 to assess agricultural livelihoods and food security. Data was collected through face-to-face surveys in the provinces of Kanem, Lac, Moyen-Chari, Logone Occidental, Moyen-Kebbi Est and Wadi Fira. A total of 5310 households were interviewed. Data collection took place after the rainy season, during the harvest period. For more information, please go to https://data-in-emergencies.fao.org/pages/monitoring.

Sampling
The survey for Phase 4 was developed in partnership with INSEED to achieve representation at the administrative level 2, drawing upon the 2009 General Census of Population and Housing (RGPH 2) and incorporating a 3.5% estimated annual growth rate. Selection criteria, aligned with FAO standards and in collaboration with SISAAP, prioritized vulnerability as identified in the Harmonized Framework outcome analysis, particularly for communities in levels 3 and 4 within Sahelian and Sudanian zones, and factored in FAO's operational presence. This selection also considered regions significantly affected by the floods in 2022. The methodology employed a two-stage probability sampling, designating villages as the primary sampling units and households as the secondary units.
The methodology stipulated a cluster size of 12, necessitating a minimum of 22 village clusters, resulting in a sample size of 264 per stratum. Consequently, the survey encompassed 5,808 households across 22 departments, ensuring representativeness at the admin 2 level for the designated provinces.
Surveys are designed based on country-specific needs, objectives, and constraints. They aim to achieve a 10% margin of error, a 95% confidence level, administrative-level granularity, and sufficient sample sizes for key target populations, including agricultural households.
For more details on the sampling procedure, consult the methodology document attached in the documentations tab.
To further refine the study's accuracy and representativeness, weights were calculated at the admin 2 level to adjust for potential discrepancies based on the distribution of the rural population. Initially, only base weights at the admin 2 level were determined.

STATISTICAL DISCLOSURE CONTROL (SDC)
The dataset was anonymized using Statistical Disclosure methods by the Data in Emergencies Hub team and reviewed by the Office of Chief Statistician at FAO. All direct identifiers have been removed prior to data submission.
In addition, recoding and local suppressions were applied to ensure data confidentiality. Recoding was especially applied to variables, such as education, marital status, residence status/type and toilet type variable.
